Five for Friday (I have an excuse)

It's Five for Friday time again and I'm late AGAIN!!!! I kinda have an excuse...I really do;)

So here's a peek at some randomness in my week:)

I have said it before and I'll say it again.....it is MAJOR crunch time for writing.....my time prepping these kiddos is running out.....too quickly:( Kinda freaking me out a little! So of course we are writing and writing and polishing and writing some more. I think I shared before I found these cute puffy stickers at Target (or did I share that on Instagram????? My blog world and Instagram world blur together...lol....anyone else have that problem?)

The kids got really excited over these.....it's the little things....right?

If they scored a 4 or higher, they got a puffy sticker:)

I started this last week and forgot to share here. This was my teamies idea. We are graphing every demand write we do. 4 or higher:) (I still have some papers to grade to catch the graph up but you get the idea) You can also see some of my kiddos have a ways to go:/ I think they know what to do, they are just not doing it.....hoping that will change very soon cuz we're out of time!!

Now, here's my excuse for being late.....we had field days with our kids yesterday. A day full of all kinds of outdoor fun!!! (sidebar.....am I the only one that thinks kids spend too much time in front of TVs and video games and not outside playing?!?!?!) So this day was FAB!!!

Then, this happened......

Dummy me tried to do this jump, twist thing with a hula hoop around one ankle and well.....

the hula hoop won:(

Boo!!!!! Just call me fatty ankle:/ AND, I start coaching Girls on the Run Monday!!! Ugh....I'll be doing a lot of pointing and not so much running:((

Don't forget what's coming up Monday....

Hope to see ya back here for that:) Have a blessed weekend everyone!!!

Oh my word!!! Your ankle!!!! OWWWWW!!!!!And love puffy stickers and all you have going on in your room. I did the What's in my Purse thing too. It was slow going with first graders, but we got there! :)

Oh no! I hope you heal up quick! I agree, kids spend WAAAAYY too much time being inactive. Even the PE at my school isn't that interactive. It makes me sad. But at the end of every year we have "Sports Day", which looks similar to your field day! Awesome, thanks for sharing :)

Don't you just love observations? And why is it that other professions don't have observations? I mean, think about it. Does your doctor get observed? Or your lawyer? No! But teachers do. Anyway, I know yours will go very well!

I'm loving everything in this post except for you getting hurt. My puffy heart goes out to you with the "4 or more" crunch time. My kiddos are helping our 4th grade neighbors giving them some suggestions since they've already been through it. Let me know if you need us to send you anything for de-stressers...Starbucks, chocolate, etc!AlisonRockin' and Lovin' Learnin'

I'm a Christian, wife, mother of 2 wonderful teenagers, and a 4th grade teacher. I love watching my daughter bang balls on the beach volleyball courts and my son playing golf. I also enjoy gardening, reading, singing, and hanging with my family.
